Marigolds
Whisper your shame in the cracks of the pavement
And water the spot where the seed of your pain went
A decade will pass before marigolds grow
And the roots, since forgotten, will drag you below
A window display of some antique TVs
Where each screen holds a piece of a face you'd once seen
But the order's all wrong, and the LED glare
Leaves a shattered cadaver you'd sworn wasn't there
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
Swallowing stones that won't sit in your stomach
But go to your head so you float and then plummet
Setting the clock to what feels like the time
Only to find you're twelve hours behind
Sometimes I dream that I live by the shore
In a town where a frown is as rare as a storm
But then I awake, and I grieve, for I know
This shadow will follow wherever I go
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
And water the spot where the seed of your pain went
A decade will pass before marigolds grow
And the roots, since forgotten, will drag you below
A window display of some antique TVs
Where each screen holds a piece of a face you'd once seen
But the order's all wrong, and the LED glare
Leaves a shattered cadaver you'd sworn wasn't there
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
Swallowing stones that won't sit in your stomach
But go to your head so you float and then plummet
Setting the clock to what feels like the time
Only to find you're twelve hours behind
Sometimes I dream that I live by the shore
In a town where a frown is as rare as a storm
But then I awake, and I grieve, for I know
This shadow will follow wherever I go
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
Don't wait
Don't wait for nothing
